Chun Tai Ji Ming 春台既明 by Tao Zi Er 桃籽儿

[1] 

During the period when Yin Mengxi was betrayed by her career, she unexpectedly reencountered the failed romance from her school days. 

The former Senior Xiao had now become Professor Xiao. The only thing that hadn’t changed was that he still quietly appeared in her camera lens—his hands, which had spent years turning the pages of books, were as elegant as ever, just like the pure heart she once harbored while secretly admiring him. 

“Have you ever done anything in your life that you regret?” 

She lowered her head and asked the question mechanically from her interview script. 

The person across from her fell silent, as if lost in deep thought. After a moment, he replied, “Yes, I have.” 

She raised an eyebrow. “What was it?” 

“That semester, I shouldn’t have given a girl a C,” he said honestly, looking straight at her.

She knew it well—this man’s eyes only held the brightness of sunlight after rain and the beauty of spring. He was never like her, chasing fame and fortune with greed and worldliness. Yet, when she fell, he reached out his hand to catch her. At that moment, his eyes carried the vastness of the sea under the rising moon, brimming with both expansiveness and tenderness. 

If you’re tired, take a little nap. 

My love, 

Spring has already arrived.
